Letter: Dangers on roads reflect the times

Inconsiderate behavior all too common.

Editor:

Driving a car today is as bad as I can recall during my nearly 60 years of driving. As for the speed limit, forget it. The state should save money and remove those signs. They might as well get rid of "yield" signs as well, since no one seems to know what that word means.

Driving in the city is horrendous, with double-parked cars, people opening their vehicle doors into traffic and emerging into traffic, drivers turning left in front of you, cars parked at hydrants and right up to the corner, and students daring you to hit them as they stroll in front of you. Unfortunately, I cannot see a solution to these ills. It is just a reflection as to what our society has become.
